Intro to Letters includes the following activities in a Universal app that will work on iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch:

——

• LETTER SOUNDS (Lowercase Letters) The first activity places an emphasis on phonetics instead of letter sounds. Your child will learn the sounds of the letters through a series of guided, interactive exercises.

• PHONOGRAMS Similar to the letter sounds, your child will work through the sounds of phonograms and unite them with their symbols.

• FLASHCARDS Connect the sounds of the lowercase letters with their uppercase counterparts.

• LETTER NAMES (Capital Letters) The objective of this activity is to acquire a knowledge of the names and symbols of the capital letters.

• SOUNDCARDS A special recording section to help your child learn sounds, phonograms and names.

• PRACTICE MODE - This section allows kids to practice specific letters or phonograms. A new toggle feature allows the user to isolate their tracing paths.

• ADDITIONAL FEATURES:Integrated Kids Library: Swiping the home screen will reveal all Montessorium apps on the user’s device. Tap an app icon to switch to a different activity.

Integrated Parent Portal: We’ve added several tools to help adults access information. With “Journal”, adults can stay up to date with Montessorium news and read posts on education, design, and technology.

Pretty great app

by
Beefink

I think for the most part this is app does a great job. I especially love the option of recording my own voice to do the instructing.I gave 4 out of 5 stars only because I wish there was an an option in the settings for left handed kids. My child tends to want to trace in the opposite direction of what a right handed person would naturally want to trace.
